Euro 2020: Experience paying off for England after 'perfect' performance, says Harry Kane

Firstpost  

Kane pointed to the success of English sides in top-level European club competition in the past three years as a reason they can end a 55-year wait to win a major tournament ahead of a last-four clash with Denmark at Wembley Harry Kane believes England’s greater experience at major tournaments is paying off after scoring twice in a 4-0 thrashing of Ukraine to reach the Euro 2020 semi-finals on Saturday. However, Kane pointed to the success of English sides in top-level European club competition in the past three years as a reason they can end a 55-year wait to win a major tournament ahead of a last-four clash with Denmark at Wembley on Wednesday. “The World Cup was great but we fell short, we had another semi-final in the Nations League, and now it’s about getting over the line and that’s what we’ve got to do on Wednesday.” Kane was fiercely criticised for his sluggish performances in the group stage as he managed just one shot on target. “To perform like we did was top drawer: four goals, another clean sheet, it’s a perfect night for us.”
